File Ownership Prior to Release 4.5, MPE has used the creator name, an unqualified user name, to track file ownership. The system only recorded file creators (not the creators of accounts or groups). As of Release 4.5, files and HFS directories can be created outside the logon account if the user has the appropriate access to do so. Therefore, unqualified user names are no longer sufficient for indicating object ownership. As of Release 4.5, file ownership for all newly created files or renamed files is indicated by a fully qualified user name. The fully qualified user name is called the file owner. The concept of the file owner is similar to the file creator. Note however that the file creator could never be changed for a file whereas the file owner can be changed.
